Wish On An Eyelash

Mallrat's 'Wish On An Eyelash' is a dreamy, ethereal exploration of love and longing. The song's lyrics convey a deep desire to be with someone special, expressed through a series of heartfelt wishes and celestial imagery. The repeated attempts to communicate this longing—'I been tryin' to tell ya, I been dyin' to tell ya'—highlight the intensity of the emotions involved. The singer's wish to have this person 'all to myself' underscores a yearning for an exclusive, intimate connection.

The song's imagery takes a cosmic turn with lines like 'When we're up in a spaceship, that's when I feel the greatest.' This metaphor suggests that the ultimate feeling of happiness and fulfillment is found in a transcendent, almost otherworldly state, far removed from the mundane realities of everyday life. The idea of leaving 'all the parties' and 'not in our bodies' further emphasizes a desire to escape and find solace in a private, shared universe.

Wishing on an eyelash, elevens, and birthdays are traditional acts of hope and desire, symbolizing the singer's earnest attempts to manifest this love. The lyrics 'I plan my days all around ya, planets orbit around ya' elevate the beloved to a celestial status, making them the center of the singer's universe. The mention of angels surrounding the person adds a spiritual dimension, suggesting that this love is not only profound but also divinely blessed. Mallrat's use of these metaphors and imagery creates a rich tapestry of emotion, making 'Wish On An Eyelash' a poignant ode to love and longing.
